Chapter 65: The Tiger Leaves Its Cage

Colonel Busse was just about to answer when he saw a tank commander climbing out of the new model tank, "Right, I need to borrow a motorcycle from you guys."

Colonel Busse looked puzzled, "For what purpose?"

The commander pointed ahead, "The enemy is preparing counter artillery fire, right? Once the preparation is over, I want to go in and check the location of the craters."

Colonel Busse, also an armored commander, understood immediately, "Afraid of falling into craters?"

"Yes, the new tank has broad tracks which provide good passage through mud, but the thing is so heavy that if it falls into a pit, it's more than likely it won't be able to get out on its own. You probably don't have tractors capable of towing something this heavy."

Colonel Busse's aide, feeling slightly contrarian for some reason, said, "Our tractors can tow something weighing 40 tons!"

"This thing weighs fifty-six tons," the commander said.

The aide closed his mouth.
